I would like to say how BLESSED and THANKFUL I am for the amazing and outstanding job that Christopher Woodward did as my son's attorney. My son was already on a felony probation and was also charged with a new 1st degree case that was reduced to a 2nd degree and avoided both a felony conviction and prison time. If you are looking for a lawyer that will represent your loved one to the fullest. Christopher Woodward is the best choice and I would highly recommend him in every way.

I got a dui, i had a lot of anxiety about whether i was going to jail, couldn't sleep for 2 weeks, was on the internet and came across Miss Tuckers web site, After doing my research on her and her law firm, found that she had co-authored a book on dui's, i set up an appointment. After our first meeting, i felt a good amount of relief. i was overwhelmed with what she was able to negotiate with the prosecuting attorney and judge, I would recommend Miss Tucker and her law firm to anyone in need of a great lawyer, and i have to mention, her assistant dylan, was always available if Miss Tucker wasn't available, Great Job

I put my trust in Kimberly Tucker hands and she did not let me down. She is very straight forward, professional and honest. I truly feel that she goes above and beyond to come up with the best solution for your problem. If you are looking for an attorney that has your back KGT Law firm is for you. It's important to listen and follow what she tells you for the best outcome. This is my second time using Kimberly Tucker and had amazing results again. I would not hesitate to send a friend or family member her way. I came in for my consultation she listened,took notes and gave me her honest opinion explained what she would try to do on her end. She definitely knows the law. I was very glad to have her on my side. Positive, Professional and Honest.

I had a DUI in Denton country. It was very stressful and I knew I need a very good attorney to support me to get through this. After going through so many hours of research online, my search ended with hiring Kimberly. I am very glad she accepted my case. She was honest with me from the beginning and explained me the possibilities of the case, made me understand the law, what the next steps are and is very professional in communication. What I really liked about the service is -> Her strategical advice at many points, given the complexity of my case is really good. -> Communication was prompt via email at every step, including for her own vacation time upfront. -> Her patience in answering questions, genuine advice and care for the client. -> Her explanation of what will happen next and what the plan is. -> Exceptional service, going above and beyond There were many instances where the service was above and beyond, ex: I had issues with my interlock device for a short time and she cared enough to help by letting her IID contact know about the issue. Also, at the end, she got my interlock device removal granted, but I did not got the removal papers on the court date by mistake. She and her team followed up personally and got the papers to me from the court the very next day!! She cares about her clients enough and I felt no different and I am really very pleased with her service. I had attorneys for other things in my past such as immigration matters and others, and from my own little experience I can say that she is definitely in her own league, at the very top. I wish my other attorneys could at least be half good as her. I could not be more happy with the outcome we got last week. I cannot thank her enough and I would highly recommend her services. I am usually not the reviewing type, but I felt the need to do something in return for her awesome service and the person she is. I am able to write this review in peace because of her. I do wish her all the best for her future.

The attention to detail and personalized care I received from the team truly set them apart from every one else. From the moment I reached out with an inquiry about my car wreck case to the post follow-up, BLW Legal’s commitment to ensuring my satisfaction was evident. Not only did they address my concerns promptly, but they also went above and beyond to make sure I was completely happy with my results. BLW Legal was not only of exceptional quality but also delivered on its promises, proving to be even better than I had anticipated. I have no hesitation in recommending BLW Legal Group to others seeking a seamless blend of superior legal expertise and outstanding customer service.

Bridgette is an exceptional attorney! She was able to get the charge reduced, and we couldn't be more grateful for the outcome. She is incredibly patient, took the time to explain every step of the process with clarity, and was always responsive to my questions. I’ve also referred her to several friends as a personal injury lawyer, and they’ve had great experiences as well. I highly recommend Bridgette for anyone in need of a dedicated and skilled lawyer.

Let's face it: most attorneys are just looking to plead a deal that is easy for them. Thomas Wynne understands that you want better than that. His relationships and reputation with higher end clients gives him an edge many others do not. It's a White Glove service for people that don't want the lowest price and a cheap suit. Call him, meet with him, put him in your speed dial, he's worth the money.

I had the pleasure of working with Jack Wilson as my criminal defense attorney, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with his services. Jack is extremely professional and responsive, always providing direct and clear communication, which is crucial in stressful situations like this. Whenever I had a question, he responded within minutes, demonstrating his commitment and dedication. Jack went above and beyond, taking additional time securing a great deal for me when it wasn’t required. He has your best interest in mind 100% of the time even if it means more work for him. Jack took a huge weight off my shoulders and made the entire process much easier to digest. I am forever thankful for Jack Wilson and would 100% recommend him to anyone in need of these kinds of services. Thank you, Jack.

I am incredibly grateful to have had Attorney Erin Hendricks represent me in my recent trial. From the moment I engaged her services, it was clear that she is not only a skilled lawyer but also a dedicated advocate for her clients. Erin approached my case with meticulous attention to detail, crafting a strong strategy that effectively highlighted the key elements of my defense. Her preparation was thorough, and she was always one step ahead, which instilled a great deal of confidence in me. During the trial, Erin’s ability to articulate complex legal arguments in a clear and compelling manner was impressive. She engaged the jury with a persuasive narrative that truly resonated. Her calm demeanor and strong presence in the courtroom made a significant impact on the proceedings. In addition to her legal expertise, Erin was incredibly supportive throughout the process. She took the time to keep me informed and answered all my questions patiently, which made a stressful situation much more manageable. Winning the case was a testament to her hard work and dedication. I cannot recommend Erin Hendricks highly enough for anyone seeking a competent and passionate attorney. She is a true professional who goes above and beyond for her clients.

In the summer of 2023 I found myself in a situation that I never thought myself to be in. I was involved in an incident where there could have been some serious consequences, for others and also me. Luckily no one got hurt but I did spend the night in jail and was facing a serious charge. I feel responsible for what happened and fortunately Erin agreed to represent me. Erin walked me through what may happen, informed me of the worst case scenario and the also the best. She represented me, tried to ease all my concerns which were many, kept me informed on the progress of the case, advised me on all the options that I could pursue, and all the while was very professional in her dealings with me as a client and as a person who needed help. I am so grateful that Erin was there as my attorney from the beginning to the end. And as Erin outlined at the beginning of the process, legally things turned out for the best.

This lawyer came highly recommended! He NEVER went and saw his client! He didn’t communicate as he assured he would! Once he got his money it was radio silence! He never informed the family of canceled court dates knowing that they were driving in from Houston! He’s arrogant and very smug! He talked crazy and was very argumentative with my mother who’s a senior citizen! He lied and was very disrespectful and when I asked him to apologize, he said he would but didn’t! This is a stressful time for families and for a PAID attorney to behave this way is unacceptable! This is why SOME PEOPLE don’t like working with attorneys of our own skin! I wouldn’t recommend Andrew to help with a parking ticket!

Only reason why they are getting 2 stars is because they won my case.Mainly because the attorney I had there was amazing. But they drove her off near the end of my case and that's when everything went down hill. My case ended in February and I have been waiting for my reimbursement from my trust with them. They have continually said they have sent a check in the mail. But it never comes, I have called multiple times and asked that they wire it back to my account for a month straight and they still refuse to do so. It has been over 6 months and they blatantly refuse to return my money. I would not advise anyone using this firm.

What a Drug Crime Lawyer Can Do for You

A drug crime lawyer specializes in defending individuals accused of offenses involving controlled substances. These offenses can range from simple possession to more serious charges like distribution, trafficking, manufacturing, or possession with intent to distribute. Drug crimes can involve illegal substances such as marijuana, cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, as well as the unauthorized use or distribution of prescription medications.

A drug crime lawyer has in-depth knowledge of federal and state drug laws and can navigate the complexities of the legal system to protect your rights. They can challenge the prosecution's evidence, negotiate plea deals, and represent you in court to potentially reduce charges, dismiss the case, or minimize penalties.

When Should I Hire a Drug Crime Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a drug crime lawyer as soon as possible in the following situations:

  • Under Investigation: If you suspect you are being investigated for a drug-related offense, consulting a lawyer early can help you avoid self-incrimination and prepare a defense strategy.
  • Arrested or Charged: If you have been arrested or formally charged with a drug crime, immediate legal representation is crucial to protect your rights and begin building your defense.
  • Search and Seizure Issues: If law enforcement has conducted a search of your person, vehicle, or property, a lawyer can assess whether your Fourth Amendment rights were violated and if any evidence can be suppressed.
  • Facing Serious Penalties: Drug charges can carry severe consequences, including jail time, hefty fines, probation, mandatory rehabilitation programs, and a permanent criminal record.
  • Complex Cases: Cases involving multiple charges, conspiracy, trafficking across state or national borders, or allegations of involvement with organized crime require specialized legal expertise.

What Does a Drug Crime Lawyer Do?

A drug crime lawyer provides a range of legal services to defend and support you throughout the legal process:

  • Legal Consultation and Advice: Explain the charges against you, your rights, and the potential consequences. They will help you understand the legal process and your options.
  • Case Investigation: Examine the details of your case, including police reports, evidence, and witness statements, to identify weaknesses or violations of legal procedures.
  • Defense Strategy Development: Create a tailored defense strategy, which may include challenging the legality of the search and seizure, disputing possession, or questioning the credibility of witnesses.
  • Negotiating with Prosecutors: Work to negotiate plea bargains or reduced charges when appropriate, aiming to minimize potential penalties.
  • Court Representation: Represent you in all court proceedings, advocating on your behalf during hearings, trials, and sentencing.
  • Protecting Your Rights: Ensure that your constitutional rights are upheld throughout the legal process, including protection against unlawful searches, coerced confessions, or violations of due process.
  • Post-Trial Assistance: Assist with appeals, sentence modifications, or expungement of records if applicable.

How Are Drug Crime Lawyers Paid?

Drug crime lawyers typically charge for their services in one of the following ways:

  • Hourly Rate: Charging an hourly fee for the time spent on your case. Rates can vary widely based on the lawyer's experience and geographic location.
  • Flat Fee: A set amount that covers specific services or the entirety of your case, providing cost predictability.
  • Retainer Fee: An upfront payment from which the lawyer deducts hourly fees and expenses as they work on your case. The retainer may need to be replenished as the case progresses.
  • Payment Plans: Some lawyers offer payment arrangements to make their services more affordable over time.

It's important to discuss payment structures and fees during your initial consultation to understand the financial commitment involved.

How Much Does a Drug Crime Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a drug crime lawyer depends on various factors, including the complexity of the case, severity of the charges, and the lawyer's experience. General cost estimates include:

  • Hourly Rates: Typically range from $200 to $500 or more per hour.
  • Flat Fees: For less complex cases (e.g., simple possession charges), flat fees might range from $2,000 to $7,500.
  • Complex Cases: Cases involving multiple charges, felonies, or trafficking can cost $10,000 to $50,000 or more due to the extensive legal work required.
  • Trial Costs: If your case goes to trial, costs can increase significantly, potentially exceeding $25,000.

Additional costs may include:

  • Expert Witness Fees: Costs for specialists who may testify on your behalf, such as forensic experts or toxicologists.
  • Investigative Expenses: Expenses related to gathering evidence, hiring private investigators, or locating witnesses.
  • Court Fees and Administrative Costs: Filing fees and other expenses associated with court proceedings.

Always request a detailed fee agreement and discuss potential additional costs to avoid unexpected expenses.

Top Questions to Ask a Drug Crime Lawyer

  1. What experience do you have handling drug crime cases similar to mine?
    Ensure the lawyer has a strong background in defending against the specific charges you are facing.
  2. How do you charge for your services, and what are the estimated costs?
    Understand the fee structure and get an estimate of the total cost involved.
  3. What potential outcomes can I expect for my case?
    Ask for an honest assessment, including best-case and worst-case scenarios.
  4. What is your approach to defending drug crime charges?
    Learn about the strategies they might employ and how they plan to handle your defense.
  5. How will you communicate with me throughout the process?
    Establish expectations for updates and availability.
  6. What are the strengths and weaknesses of my case?
    Understand the challenges you may face and how the lawyer plans to address them.
  7. How long do you expect the legal process to take?
    Get an estimated timeline based on the specifics of your case.

How to Check the Credibility of a Drug Crime Lawyer

  • Verify Their License: Ensure the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state's bar association.
  • Experience and Specialization: Look for a lawyer who specializes in criminal defense with a focus on drug crimes.
  • Client Reviews and Testimonials: Research online reviews or ask for references to learn about other clients' experiences.
  • Professional Memberships: Membership in organizations like the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers (NACDL) indicates a commitment to the field.
  • Disciplinary Record: Check for any past disciplinary actions or complaints filed against the lawyer.
  • Consultation Feedback: Use the initial consultation to assess their communication style, professionalism, and confidence in handling your case.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most of your initial meeting with a drug crime lawyer, bring the following:

  • Detailed Account of Events: Write down everything you remember about the incident, including dates, times, locations, and interactions with law enforcement.
  • Legal Documents: Bring all documents related to your case, such as:
    • Arrest records
    • Charging documents
    • Bail paperwork
    • Search warrants
    • Any correspondence from law enforcement or the court
  • Witness Information: Provide names and contact information of any potential witnesses who can support your defense.
  • Evidence: Bring any physical evidence or records that may be relevant, such as text messages, emails, or surveillance footage.
  • List of Questions: Prepare questions about your case, the legal process, and the lawyer's experience.
  • Honesty: Be prepared to discuss all details openly and honestly; attorney-client privilege ensures confidentiality.

By being thoroughly prepared, you enable the lawyer to assess your situation effectively and provide the best possible legal advice tailored to your case.
